This set contains one of the best PvP set bonuses ever created. Stamina is the most important stat in PvP and +20 stamina bonus for only two pieces is amazing. Since the +damage on this set is relatively low compared to AQ40 and Naxx gear, I would recommend mixing and matching with at least two pieces of PvP gear for the best combination (if you have access to AQ40/Naxx).

The way the honor system is now, it's about as fast as leveling rank... I'm a pretty avid pvp'r on a RP server. I enjoy AV for the shear number of hk's and honor that can be had by either side. It is pretty fair in our battlegroup...however the scales are severely tipped in the Horde's favor in AB and WSG...I ran 10 ab's sunday 12/10/06 and aside from 3 pug vs pug runs, it was a total steamrollng...I think I'm at about 18k honor, i was smart and saved 20 marks from the old bg's when it was announced 2.0 was coming out....the marks are the easy part..it's the honor that is slow in comming.

no, megobigboom is actually incorrect on this point. the field marshall's regalia differs from the warlock and priest pvp set. you'll find that while having the same graphics, the mage set still has different + bonus and dmg then the other 2.

Since the patch the 3-set bonus of this set is very viable. Getting gloves, robes and shoulders are a very good combination to keep at level 70.

a good set for a mage tat pvp's alot and only has the regular game. so if i were u id pvp like crazy for this item

This is a great set for mages who want to "twink" at level 60. Believe me, there is nothing more fun than destroying the endless waves of Death Knights who all seem to believe they are indestructible. While there are items that offer better stats than some pieces of this set, i.e. some quest rewards in Hellfire, the Field Marshal set is still worth getting. You will not be disappointed with the results. I just wish they'd extend the other two BGs to level 60 instead of capping them at 59.

As of now you can get this set for 585 HP total. I would really recommend it to any level 60 mage with their mind on PvP. I started today with just lousy world drop, quest and some instance gear and after a few hours I had almost the full set ( counting on getting the rest tomorrow ). I couldn't believe how much of a difference it made to have it. I finally don't get killed all the time and usually manage to end the BGs around the 5th spot or so which is really good for a noob like me ^^' Watch your HK count rise!

Sucks this set can not be transmog'd :(

Comment by wigglemonster

You can not use this set for transmog unless you have the feat of strength of "Warlord", "High Warlord", "Marshal" or "Field Marshal". If you do have the feat of strength, you have to buy a different set of gear to transmog it. I have confirmed that this is correct. This limitation was created so only characters with the feat of strength could wear this gear in transmog form because the actual gear is available for purchase with honor points to everyone. The transmog-able gear can be bought in Area 52 from, Leeni "smiley" smalls (Leeni "Smiley" Smalls)
